- saraid216 14y agoI'd like to see you prove the existence of an objective source, first.
- penny500 14y agoSaraid216, I don't have the burden to prove. I didn't make any claims that people "lied". But since I'm being nice, here you go: http://www.factcheck.org/bushs_16_words_on_iraq_uranium.html http://www.factcheck.org/bushs_16_words_on_iraq_uranium.html
- mixmastamyk 14y agoThis cluster-fsck in Iraq doesn't boil down to one statement. A great book, recommended by Colin Powell as the most accurate, is Richard Clarke's "Against All Enemies." There's probably no-one truly objective on the subject, as politics are entwined in every aspect... but Clarke worked under four administrations. Tenet's book sheds light on the subject as well.
- penny500 14y agoSo where's the proof that they lied? Quote the text.
- lostlogin 14y agoOut of curiosity, how would you describe the Iraq adventure? Is there anything good that can be said about it? I met a man from Kirkuk 2 days ago - family scattered around the globe, and says he can't go home, or he will be dead in a week. The country is in ruins.
- mixmastamyk 14y agoI very much doubt you'll get a useful answer. As you can see the person is hung up on a black/white/pedantic point of the use of the word lie up top. He won't be satisfied by anything less than absolutes. While some were truly evil, I tend to believe that Bush wanted to believe it enough that he convinced himself of it. The human mind is a subject of its own.
